@icedquinn old fashion soda were flavors (not all essential oils, but thats part of it), then carbonation was added the same way as with beer, yeast. In fact old school sodas were very slightly alcoholic. As time went on the yeast was replaced with high pressure CO2
@icedquinn that was just cocola, and it was sorta indirect. They used cocoa leaves for flavor, but it had some cocain in it as a result yea.
@icedquinn haha sounds about right :)
that and buying water filters.
